With frequency ranges to 40 GHz, the 2400B modulation version of the 2400B Series signal generators delivers industry-leading performance combining state of the art low phase noise, high output power, and fast switching simultaneously.
The 2400B Series is capable of a switching frequency in less than 500 microseconds, making the 2400 ideal for test applications demanding high throughput, such as antenna characterization, T/R module evaluation, or RFIC manufacturing. In addition, the 2400's low phase noise makes it suitable for serving as a low jitter clock as well as a source for low noise frequency conversion. High output power and excellent spectral purity add to the 2400's standing as the best value in a general-purpose synthesized source. In addition, the 2400B models all include an option for Giga-tronics Automation Xpress Interface (AXI). The AXI, for use with Giga-tronics Automation Xpress software, enables 2.5 ms CW Frequency/Power switching, making the 2400B Series one of the fastest signal generators in its class. The optional Automation Xpress Interface provides faster data exchange and functional downloads/executions, as well as a stable API programming interface for the ATE programming environment.
What is the benefit of Giga-tronics 2400B Series Fast Frequency Switching Signal Generator?
With the 2400B Series, you now benefit from owning a signal generator that achieves fast frequency switching and low phase noise simultaneously. The result is a reduction in test time, increased throughput, and an overall savings in test, evaluation, and production costs.
Simpler to Operate
From the first glance, it's clear the Giga-tronics 2400B is different. Its innovative design and intuitive interface will make you productive right out of the box. The 2400B symbolizes Giga-tronics commitment to simplification. Compared to our predecessor and competition, we have reduced the number of buttons and LEDs by almost half and moved all I/O connectors to the rear panel, RF out excepted. By limiting the front panel to the control of basic parameters, our engineers were able to reduce the total number of soft screens and menus drastically. As a result, the 2400B Series is the most straightforward and easy to use signal generator available today. Until now, instrument manufacturers have designed ever more complex and hard to use front panel interfaces to keep pace with the increasing functionality provided in their products. We have simplified the front panel in both content and operation and moved the interface for complex operations to the PC, making the 2400B quick to learn and easy to use. Optimized for CW and swept or stepped frequency real-time tuning applications on the bench, it's what instrumentation ought to be.
What is the advantage to using an intuitive Signal Generator?
The time it takes to drive the instrument on the bench is greatly reduced by the simplified front panel. It takes much less time to learn how to operate the 2400B in a manual mode due to the reduction in complexity of the front panel, resulting in a reduced learning time. In the past, integrating any suppliers products into your systems was a significant effort on your part with the 2400 that effort is minimized.
Faster to Program
Every 2400B signal generator comes with Giga-tronics Automation Xpress, a PC based software package designed for enhanced user interface and automatic test systems. The Automation Xpress CD includes a full-featured plug-and-play driver and soft front panels to provide the ATE system integrator with everything needed to get up and running fast. A comprehensive LIST mode, Command-Line interpreter with script and loop capability, and GPIB traffic monitoring are just a few of the many features a test system programmer will appreciate when developing and debugging Test Program Sets.
Economical Price
The 2400B Series offers tremendous value for a competitive price. The 2400B Series exceptional low phase noise comes standard with no hidden charges, and out performs all other leading suppliers standard phase noise. In addition, our harmonics are filtered throughout all of our frequency ranges, as opposed to filtering it just where it's easy to do, like the majority of signal generator suppliers have done. The new 2400B Series is designed for simplicity but with all the performance features one expects. Along with our innovative design, intuitive user interface, and Automation Xpress software, the 2400B Series is the most value-priced signal generator on the market.
